BACK TO 
SCHOOL 




This year's students came back to school on Aug. 20 and 
again had many changes to deal with. For starters, GHS 
had to get adjusted to another new schedule where we met 
every class on Monday and the rest of the week have 3 or 4 
classes in which we meet for 90 minutes at at time. Then 
the administration switched the 6 week grading period to 9 
weeks and we also had the never ending battle of getting to 
know our teachers. In March we will have to put up with 
construction workers and a major loss of space ( particu- 
larly parking). For the most part, students adjusted well to 
being back to school and appear to be having a good start 
to the new school year.

CLUBS and ACADEMICS 

Whether students paid 55 to join the Key Club, campaigned as future politicians for student 
government, or maintained high academic and extracurricular standards to earn a NHS membership, 
clubs covered all bases. As speech team members scrambled for practice slots with Coach Hemminger! 
quiz bowl competitors buzzed their way through trivia questions. With activities ranging from thespian 
initiations to late night consessions sales at sports events, clubs involved time and commitment during 
GHS students' lives during his or her life between summers. 

Goshen High School achieved the honor of becoming a four star school. A vast variety of creative 
coarses were offered which suceeded to make GHS unique. In Writing Themes, students learned the only 
way out is through reading, cover to cover, "The Grapes of Wrath." Bio Tech Students learned not to let 
identifying bacteria like, bacillus and E-Coli, conjure up fear and self doubt (even when Chrystal Violet's 
stain was dripping off the lab table after it was accidentally tipped over by her clumsy lab partner's 
elbow). Creative Writing students stayed up late finishing fast minute stories after procrastinating all 
weekend. While seniors frantically filled out college applications, others gathered vocational job 
experience to prepare for building houses, cutting hair, typing memos, and many other post-high school 
jobs. From getting to the third floor to class on time to zooming out of class when the bell rang, GHS 
students created memories from A to Z in their life between summers.

Key Club is an international student service organization connected 
with the adult version, Kiwanis Club. Key Club members provided 
voluntary services to the community while gaining leadership opportu- 
nities. Fundraisers, meetings, conventions, and work projects kept 
members very active. The GHS Key Club began the new year, in 
conjuction with the national goal, with the mission to wipe out Iodine 
Deficiency by the year 2000. Many local projects were held, as well. In 
the fall, members spent time ouside of school raking leaves for older 
citizens of the community. Also, members took turns tutoring and 
spending time with elementary kids at The Boys and Girls Club. They 
attended Kiwanis meetings, including participating in happy hour, and 
held fundraisers.

Students Aganist Driving Drunk, S.A.D.D., got off to a vibrant, 
creative start with the first ever B.Y.O.B. Bannana Split Party. The 
purpose of the gathering was to build unity within the group. S.A.D.D. 
members worked hard to stop drunk driving. The club sponsored Red 
Ribbon Week in October. In April, Members spent one afternoon 
baking. Members took the homemade goodies to local law enforcement 
officers to show their appreciation for dedicating their lives to helping 
reduce the needless act of drunk driving. S.A.D.D. members enjoyed 
clowning around at the Elkhart Women's Shelter's Health fair. Mem- 
bers dressed up as clowns and provided face painting, and carnival 
game. S.A.D.D. even sponsored a booth were information on drunk 
driving was available. Many fund raisers, including concessions and 
the yummy lip suckers, were held throughout the year.

Peer Assistance from Caring Teens is an organization composed of 
fellow "peers" or classmates. PACT members took part in training 
program during the summer led by counselor, Dori Keyser because 
these students wanted to help others. Peer counselors are available at 
all hours of the day to listen, offer possible solutions to conflicts, and just 
be a friend. Each member of PACT took the challenge of mentoring one 
to two children from an elementary school or the middle school. Mem- 
bers also performed conflict resolutions during the year and the success 
rate was so good that often times the same kids would come back when 
faced with another trial. PACT, in cooperation with Student Council, 
sponsored the Freshman Orientation. In addition, many members vol- 
unteered and enjoyed spending a day at Camp Mack with eigth graders 
and attending the end of the year party with the kids they mentored. 
Dori Keyser is a nationaly recognized speaker for the Peer program, 
GHS is fortunate to have her ability and knowledge on staff.

Buckle Your Bod, a club promoting seat belt use to achieve the school 
population, performed a variety of activities to help their goal of almost 
70% of the student body wearing seatbelts when each student arrives or 
leaves the school. The club sent eight members to the annual Buckle You 
Bod Conference at the Elkhart County Fairgrounds. Members enjoyed 
hearing speakers , getting to know local law enforcement officers, 
hearing ideas from other clubs, and receiving free stuff to help educate 
students at GHS. The club raised money throughout the year by spon- 
soring a student versus staff baseball game and selling t-shirts and 
concessions at the game, but sadly the game was rained out. The club 
sponsored Vince and Larry, safty dummies, at the Elkhart Women's 
Health Fair.

Art Club is a fun and interesting outlet for students to show 
their creative side. The club is open to all students both those 
taking art class and those who don't have the oppurtunity to take 
art classes. Under the leadership of Mrs. Joldersma, sponsor, and 
student coordinators, Lee Green, Jen Oklak, and Amber Krebs Art 
Club is made possible. Art Club Members spend occasional flex 
time making pieces of art, such as jewelry and candles, for fun. 
Some of the crafts, including hand-made ceramic mugs, were sold 
as a fundraiser. The hard earned money went towards trips to art 
museums in Indianapolis and Chicago. The trips were first open 
to art club members and then to students taking art classes.

Chips and dip anyone? In exchange for the fine food and fellowship 
offered periodically at the bi-weekly meetings, Drama Club members 
worked to use their talents in the art of acting. The fall play, "It's a 
Wonderful Life," and the spring musical, "Crazy for You," were made 
successful by Drama Club members. Members contributed their skills 
and enthusiaum both as actors, actresses, and doing many behind the 
scenes jobs. Members did not stop there; other activies included the 
successful Haloween in the Park, one-acts, and Beatnick Day. Drama 
Club was opened to any student interested in developing his or her 
talents in the art of performing, staging, managing, or simply support- 
ing the fine Thespians found on the GHS Stage. Many Drama Club 
Members were added to the International Thespian Society after acting 
in at least one school sponsored performances, having worked behind 
the scene and participating in the inticiation. 




Students gather together in celebrating Christian Unity Day 
sponsored by S.W.A.T. Members. 

Students With A Testimony, S.W.A.T, is precisely what mem- 
bers of the group are. The meetings focus on God and ways that 
students can keep Him in mind, even in the chaos of a typical 
school day. A variety of topics were discussed under co-chairmen 
Jeff Blosser and Lee Green. Members worked to create an atmo- 
sphere where students could talk about God and encourage one 
another in their daily Christian walk. In addition to the Bible 
study, S.W.A.T. sponsored a praise and worship opportunity. 
Whether singing in the courtyard or gathering for a S.W.A.T. party 
in a member's home the fun filled group was unified through their 
beliefs and created many tresured memories during "Life Be- 
tween Summers."

The word fun only begins to describe these academic creative French 
Club members. Under the leadership of sponsor, Miss Maire, and Co- 
presidents, Nick Carpenter and Tom Slabach, the club spurred the 
development of knowledge and appreciation for the French culture. 
The meetings provided a relaxed atmosphere with new exciting activi- 
ties each time. From learning how to say familiar phrases in French to 
decorating Valentine's cookies the group stayed energized. The club 
tried to study a different province each time and with the culture aspect 
carried withitthesamplingofdifferentfoodsincluding bon crepes. The 
club raised money by working concessions and selling the famous 
Toblerone chocolate. The money went towards the sponsoring of a 
impoverished French speaking youngster in North Africa and attend- 
ing the musical Les Miserables.

German Club Members began the year by sponsoring the 
tradional Octoberfest celebration. This annual event was held on 
a farm and included a hayride. The brave members of the club, 
who were ready for a challenge, took part in a saurkraut eating 
contest. As the school year progressed fundraisers including the 
infamous Toblerone chocolate candy sales and conssessions at 
school sports events kept the clubs budget open for many other fun 
activities. The German Club Christmas party was one such event. 
The highlight of the party, besides the food, was a video scavenger 
hunt. Although the parties and being able to learn about another 
country and its culture are good reasons for one to join German 
Club, the friendships and the memories created are what kept each 
active member faithful.

Learning knows no boundaries for these English as a Second Lan- 
guage, ESL, students. During the 1996-1997 GHS school year, in ESL 
classes 125 students were assisted with their speaking and reading skills 
while working one-on-one with teachers. At the same time, they were 
enrolled in regular classes with English speaking classmates in order to 
adapt to social and educational communities. When ESL teacher Ms. 
Huber was asked for her feelings on the progress of her students she 
responded with this positive remark "It amazes me to see them gain and 
retain so much vocabulary and structure. They are very motivated and 
have made huge improvements. Goshen High School is proud of them, 
as well.

The Student Faculty Senate gives the students a much larger 
voice in student activities. They act as a clearing house for all 
school activities. This faithful group composed of both faculty and 
student class officers, meets twice a month to make decisions and 
give his or her input. In addition to the big group meetings the 
senate is broken down into three separate commitees. Clubs and 
Activities reviews charters and constitutions of clubs and through- 
out the school year approves activities. A Fundraising Commitee 
approves fundraisers for groups of clubs, including assigning 
concessions. The Convocation commitee approves convocations. 
This group of dedicated individuals always has a full agenda that 
keeps each member busy.

Student Council 




Student council members, Molly Caldwell and Cory Cook, 
manned the booth at the eighth grade club fair. 



The GHS Student Council consists of organized leadership 
and serves as the general school population's voice. The ulti- 
mate goal of the 1996-97 members was to get more students 
involved and provide activities formed from the student body's 
ideas and desires. Homecoming festivities included the popu- 
lar annual dance that followed the game and the spirit week, 
that preceded the game. In addition to the fun events such as 
MORP and Mr. GHS, the council also gives back to GHS stu- 
dents through Blood Donor Day, convocations, the canned food 
drive, and the purchase of red ribbons for Drug Free Week. The 
seven represenartives from each class were led by sponsor Mrs. 
Cook and Student Body President Kristyn Yoder. In addition to 
the elected individuals, the council provides an equal unbiased 
representation by opening the council to anyone interested in 
sharing his or her views and serving on at least one commitee.

tradition around GHS. Eager students like Jodi Miller look forward 
to the day the paper arrives because she enjoys it when teachers give 
the last minutes of class to read the "heart beat of GHS." Around the 
newspaper room, productivity, creativity, and debates on current 
issues were always to be found. Exchange student Marija Pop- 
Petrovska remembers when she was assigned her first story, fellow 
staff member Fritz Stegmann helped her type the overwhelming task. 
It was this teamwork that made the class able to publish the Toma- 
hawk and be proud of the perserverence that went into it. The many 
personalities combined with the teamwork built friendships and 
memories that will far outlast this life-between-summers.

N.H.S. Officers: Secretary Samantha Larimer, Vice-presi- 
dent Rachel Hrynewycz, and President Ryan Bowers. 

National Honor Society members contributed a lot to the 
benefit of their fellow peers in the 1996-1997 school year. Each 
member volunteered his or her time to tutor students during flex, 
ring bells for the Salvation Army during the Christmas Season, 
make phone calls to raise scholarship money for the Dollars for 
Scholars program, and read to local elementary school children. 
These projects are just a few of the activities the club took part in. 
Samantha Larimer, secretary, when asked if she was proud to be 
part of this group answered quickly and affirmatively explain- 
ing, "National Honor Society members try to make a difference 
by helping the lives of other students and citizens of the commu- 
nity." This statemant has been proven true while at the same time 
these self-disciplined, academic minded members maintain at 
least a 3.5 grade point average.

G.H. S. Speech Team, "Let's talk about it," this moto held true for the 
participants of the 1 996-'97 speech team. Under the leadership of coaches 
Collins and Hemminger the members talked on a variety of topics using 
many different forms. Events ranged from impromtu to duo and in- 
cluded, others such as extempt, prose, and original oratory. This well- 
rounded team composed of freshman through seniors, looked forward to 
participating in speech meets and "would have liked to have been in- 
volved in more of them," expressed first year team member Jonathan 
Santeliz. The beeping of the alarm clock at five a.m. signaling your 
departure and hurrying to the school so the team would not leave without 
you, begins your meet day. Long van rides, complete with doughnuts and 
"Sunny Delight," waiting around for your event only to find your extempt 
file does not contain any of the information on the judge's chosen topic, 
and meeting people from other schools are only a sample of the many 
memories speech team members treasure from their life between sum- 
mers.

"Science." For many people, this word conjures up the thought of 
scary tests, labs gone wrong, and long nights of studying. For many, 
however, science means an open door through which to view the world 
in a new exciting way. A small handful of these people are part of a club 
that through various competitions, wins many honors to make the 
school proud. 

Science Olympiad met a few days a week, during which the members 
prepared for their events. Not all of this preparation was the "studying" 
that might be included in memories of difficult science classes. Instead, 
they also workedon building bridges and bottle rockets to find the best 
design for competition day. They learned about the body in preparation 
for questions and obstacle courses. All of the members' hard efforts paid 
off at the end of the season when the group took a trip to Indianapolis 
and each member received the chance to compete at the state level.

giving team members bubble gum at each game, these ladies gave 
encouragement throughout the season to the players. The Baseball 
player 's feel they are very meaningful to the baseball program . In 
addition to chasing foul balls for the baseball guys, on a lucky day they 
receive a coke and a hot dog for their efforts as well. Money from the 
concession stand goes back to the athletic department for things like 
new equipment and uniforms when needed.

The athletic trainers are perhaps the most dedicated members of the 
sports programs at our school. The trainers are extremely busy they 
work year round, not just for one season. When school lets out, they go 
to the training room and start taping ankles, wrapping muscles, and 
bandaging cuts and scrapes. They also use high-tech ultrasound and 
electric stimulation treatments to ease the aches and pains of our 
school's athletes. They do play a large part in keeping the sports 
program going and injure free. Their treatments help athletes with 
healing when an injury or strain occurs. "Our job is fun, but sometimes 
it gets hectic," says Lori Higginbotham.

SPIRIT CLUB 




Spirit Club student leader, Heather Shank. 



There have always been clubs like Keyclub and FCA that have been 
around since the beginning of time. However, this year was the rebirth 
of a hardly new idea, Spirit Club. With the help of first year teacher ,Mrs. 
Mehl,and a few motivated GHS students the Spirit Club sparked school 
spirit in each one of us which indirectly helped motivate the victorious 
seasons of the cross country team advancing all the way to State and the 
football team advancing to Regionals. From the first ever tailgate party 
after the game, complete with the delicous delicacy of hot dogs, to the 
caravan of decorated automobiles which traveled to the Concord foot- 
ball game, and to initiating all school bonfires, the club produced a sence 
of unity within the student body. The club has become an asset to 
Goshen High School and hopefully, it will be the bread and butter of the 
future.

decided to unite together to form the E.C. O. Club, which is an acronym 
for Environmental Concerns Organization. E.C.O. Club members in- 
volved themselves with egological issues and ecouraged the student 
body to share in the efforts, as well. Their goals are to be involved in 
activities which promote better health to planet Earth. Hard working 
members dedicated time to collecte used white paper and aluminum 
can sin which they can be recycled. This challenge was met each week 
by these faithful members. The club goals became a reality, which 
helped our school, our community, our country and our world.

THE CRIMSON 
MARCHING 
BAND 



The marching season for the Crimson Marching Band of 
1996 was a great season. The show for this year was called the 
"Divine Comedy" from Dante's Inferno. The band began the 
marching season at the Bremen Invitational by scoring higher 
than ever at the first contest. As the season continued the scores 
kept getting larger. At Concord's Invitational the band finally 
managed to beat Concord by 2.95 points. At Penn's Invitational 
the band beat them again by at least five points. After Regionals 
band members were excited about being ranked in the top two 
spots in the entire state. 

The Crimson Marching Band had more support the 1996 
season from the student body then they have had in previous 
years. Under the leadership of Director David Plank and drum 
majors Kaylene Ascencio, Dan Brinkruff, and Benita Miner the 
band battled it's way to the R. C. A. Dome in Indianapolis. The 
long practices, hard work, and enthusiasm was rewarded by 
placing fourth in the state and obtaining a first in music. 
Members had fun, created memories, and made an 
acomplishment that the student body was proud of .

IT'S A 
WONDERFUL UFE 



The Fall Play marked the end of a 
tradition at GHS. It was the first time the 
annual fall play was moved back until after 
Thanksgiving. No, there wasn't a natural 
disaster The change was made, according 
to Mr. Cartwright and Mrs. Yoder, direc- 
tors, to use the play's Christmas theme at 
an appropriate time and to help spice up 
holiday preparations in a warm way. 

The well-known plot line of "It's a 
Wonderful Life" was given a new twist as 
GHS students incorporated their talents, 
unique personalities, and enthusiasum into 
their acting. The play was led under the 
student direction of Brand ie Mershon. 



Sophomore, Tom Kelley, starred as 
George Bailey, a suicidal bank president, 
who wishes he never would have been 
born. As he is preparing to jump into the 
icy waters below him Clarence (an angel 
trying to earn his wings) Senior, Nick 
Carpenter, convinces him that even when 
he feels in the pit of despair "It's a Won- 
derful Life." 

The emotional play was given in three 
separate performances over two weekends 
making it possible for many to attend. 
Mike Finnigan appreciated the change 
because it meant spending more time with 
his "keen drama club friends" which 
certainly created memories in his

STRATFORD 




"Out, vile jelly!" This quote was said 
while gouging out an eyeball of an old 
man in the play, "King Lear." "King 
Lear," "Alice Through the Looking 
Glass," "The Merchant of Venice," "The 
Music Man," and an optional perfor- 
mance of "Amadeus" were the plays 
shown in Stratford, Canada this year. 
The trip lasted from October 23 to 
October 26. 

The English class, Stratford, met 
during the fall semester on Mondays 
and Wednesdays after school. The fun 
and relaxed class was team taught by 
Mr. and Mrs. Cartwright, Ms. Yost, Ms. 
Yoder, Ms. Neeb and Ms. Funk. After 
much reading, group work, testing, and 
the first paper was written the students 
headed to Canada! 

The students not only attended 
extraordinary plays but had free time to 
hang out. Whether students were 
hanging out at the "Ten Day Cafe" or 
making up their own musicals on the 
famous "Tom Patterson Island" these 
students created a trip with never 
forgotten memories.

The 1997 spring musical, "Crazy For You," 
involved over 100 Goshen High School Stu- 
dents making it one of the biggest musicals 
ever preformed at GHS. Under the leader- 
ship of directors, Marcia Yost and Susan 
Yoder, 22 seniors, a full pit orchestra, and 
members of the cast and crew gave this comi- 
cal love story a new breath while perfecting 
an air of professionalism. 

Senior Nick Carpenter starred as Bobby 
Child, an heir to a wealthy banking family 
who yearns to be in show business. Bobby 
ventures to Deadrock, Nevada with the goal 
of foreclosing on a property. Ironically, when 
Bobby arrives he finds that he is participating 
in the foreclosure of a theater. 



With his love of drama and the prospect of 
winning his love, the owner of theater, Polly 
Baker, played by Aimee Miller, serves as the

Marine 

Once again the Marine Biology Class took 
its 29 hour trip to the Florida Key of 
Islamorada. On April 4th at 6:30A.M. the bus 
was loaded and ready to go. The students, 
children, parents, and teachers arrived at the 
beautiful Oceana Resort around 1 1:30 on Sat- 
urday afternoon. The hotel was in good 
shape except a few people had trouble with 
their back doors sticking. 

The week was full of excitment. Everyone 
soon became acquainted with the friendly 
hotel staff and even joined them in a game of 
beach volleyball. The large group of students 
was divided into small eating and excursion 
groups. Every day the small groups would 
go snorkeling at one of the assigned loca- 
tions. Once returning for the day the groups 
would share with others about what they had 
found. Rachel Parsons (Superwomen of the 
group) showed no fear picking up Portu- 
guese Man-of-War and hundreds of mating 
horseshoe crabs. 

At nightorrather4:00 A.M. selected groups 
were chosen to go nocturnal collecting. 



Biology 

The students would wake up to go out to the 
rock coast. There they flipped rocks over 
looking for noctunal creatures. Some groups 
were luckier than others and found many 
animals. Sinja Eckert found a small jellyfish 
stinging her leg. 

One afternoon the entire group went to the 
John Pennekamp State Park to snorkel at the 
coral reef. After a 45 minute boat ride to the 
final destination the students gladly jumped 
into the water, some not knowing what to 
expect. The water was clear and blue with 
visibility to the ocean floor. A few of GHS's 
students were caught in a photograph taken 
by National Geographic viewing an under- 
water statue of Jesus Christ. While loading 
up the boat to leave, a four and a half foot 
barracuda was spotted swimming directly 
under the boat. All students made it safely 
back on the boat with all thier body parts. 

Marine Biology is a rigorous course but 
the "hands on" experience and the devel- 
oped friendships make enrolling in the class 
worthwhile. - by Angie Leatherman

BUILDING TRADES 



Goshen High School building trades 
class hosted an open house on Saturday, 
May 17, 1997. This year's house bostsl 664 
square feet, three bedrooms, two-and- 
one-half baths, a wood deck, as well as a 
zero-clearance fire place. Students who 
helped build the brick veneered ranch 
can drive past the house for years and see 
just what they accomplished in school. 

Building Trades Teacher Pete Weddell 
explains the program: "The class is es- 
sentially divided in two halves, morning 
and afternoon. Nine Students partici- 
pating in the morning, and twelve in the 
afternoon. The class meets for 
approximatly two-and-one-half hours. 
We begin a house in September and fin- 
ish it in May." "Students learn building 
trades industry -related skills such as 
farming, trimming, concrete work, 
drywalling, roofing, and the mechanical 
areas of heating, plumbing, and electri- 
cal systems," Weddell says. Many GHS 
students are planning building trade ca- 
reers through working for local contrac- 
tors or continuing in school to prepare 
for careers as plumbers and electricians. 

Truly a "hands-on" learning experi- 
ence building trades was, for many of its 
students, the best part of the school day.

BAND 
at DISNEY! 

It looks like the enduring 24 hour bus ride to 
Florida paid off after all. Monday morning at 
planet Hollywood, a whole day at MGM Studios- 
free to do what ever you wish and than hanging out 
in the hotel until curfew began the band adventure. 
(Remember members--a piece of tape was placed 
on the crack of the door-broken tape meant some- 
one broke curfew.) The next day spent at Magic 
Kingdom, then marching in the "Spectra Magic 
Parade"! Water parks, like Typhoon Lagoon, Epcot 
Center, and pictures with Ewoks what memories! 
One more event we can not forget, the three hour 
sight reading workshop we took. We played songs 
to Aladdin and heard it played as background 
music to the actual movie! What better way than to 
spend spring break having fun with friends, being 
out in the sun, and getting credit for it too!

Fall 
Convo 



The fall convocation had a new, energetic 
announcer this year. Mr. J.D. Russell got the 
Redskins fired up for homecoming. He made the 
rafters shake with his excitement. This year 
the toilet-paper wrap game brought a lot of 
enjoyment to the students and teachers. Of 
course the Seniors won the event. The drum line 
put on a great show. The fall sports for the 
96-97 season were introduced along with this year's homecom- 
ing king and queen candidates and their court.

Homecoming 




Homecoming was, as usual, a week packed full of 
spirit days and activities. This year's theme 
was Hollywood. Appropriately named, the dress up 
days were Disney Day, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen 
Twin Day, Hippy Day, College Hat Day, and Big Red 
Day. 

Mid-week there was a convocation at which all 
fall sports were recognized, the drum line 
played, and the cheerleaders performed. This 
year's homecoming court was introduced and vari- 
ous relays and games were played. The entire 
event was emceed by Mr. J.D. Russell. 

The week ended in a victory for Goshen's foot- 
ball team against Northridge. The floats paraded 
around the track after many pre-game activities. 
Each class had a different movie as their theme. 
Freshmen represented Rocky, Sophomores Forest Gump, Juniors The 
Wizard ofOz, and Seniors Saturday Night Fever. Cakes decorated 
earlier in the week also featured each class's chosen movie. Over- 
all winners of homecoming week were the seniors. At halftime, 
the band performed and Kristyn Yoder and Dan Brinkruff were 
named homecoming queen and king.

The 1996-1997 Cheerleading season began with a bang. The 
squads started practicing for their summer competitions as soon as 
school let out for the summer break. The J.V. and Varsity squads 
both competed with stellar routines at both the Starke County Fair 
and the Elkhart County Fair. The competition was tough, but 
Goshen pulled off a clean sweep with the two squads walking 
away with first place trophies from both fairs. The Freshman 
squad competed at the St. Joe County Fair where they did an 
outstanding job. 

We will be losing three strong seniors, Amy Dean, Aimee 
Miller, and Carrie Zentz, along with mascot Rachael Cunningham. 
They have provided strong leadership this year and will be hard to 
replace. Award winners were:

The Boys Tennis team duplicated the accomplishments of last 
years' successful season of finishing in the top eight in the state. 
They completed a second consecutive undefeated season and an 
overall record of 19-1. 

The South Bend Semi-State runner-up team was lead by cap- 
tains Tim Miller and Tom Slabach. They finished with outstanding 
career records of 80-15 and 71-5 respectively. Adam Scharf at #3 
singles finished his junior season with a record of 21-1. His only 
loss was in the final match of the season. Juniors Luke Jordan and 
Phil Bowser made great strides from the 1995 season to become an 
intimidating duo at #1 doubles this season. Junior Chad Zepeda 
and freshman Josh Kurtz had a good year and a big win at #2 
doubles to help the team win the NLC tournament. Tim Miller, 
Tom Slabach, and Adam Scharf were named to the All-Conference 
team. Team captains were seniors Tim Miller and Tom Slabach. 

The award winners were Goshen Rotary Most Valuable (Tim 
Miller), Most Improved (Luke Jordan), WKAM Caches (Tom 
Slabach), Beets Hoke Teamwork Award (Phil Bowser), Paul 
Underwood Mental Attitude (Adam Scharf), 4-year Award (Tim 
Miller), Tom Sovine Career Award (Tim Miller), and JV Award

The Boys Cross-Country team had a wonderful season. 
This is the first time the team has been in the top 20 since the 
mid 1970's. They had many accomplishments this season. 
They included an 11-1 season record, East Noble Invitational 
Champs, West Noble Champs, Conference Co-Champs, 
Conference Meet Champs, Sectional, Regional, and Semi- 
State Champions and they made a 13th place finish at the 
State Championships. 

Four runners were named to the All Conference Team. 
They were Juniors Kris Allen, Jeff Payne, Sophomore Eric 
Murto, and Freshman Andrew McKalips. The 1996 award 
winners were Most Valuable (Kris Allen), Paul Underwood 
Mental Attitude Award (Jeff Payne), WKAM Coaches Award 
(Troy Hogan), Beets Hoke Teamwork Award (Chris Miller),

The 1996 Goshen High School Girls Cross Country team proved 
to be a greatly improved team over teams in recent years. With a 
mix of experience and youth the girls squad demonstrated enthu- 
siasm and competitiveness each time they ran. The overall team 
record was 7-5 and 3-3 in NLC Conference play. Some highlights 
of the season were a third place finish at the Lakeland Invitational 
Meet and a third place finish at the Elkhart Sectional meet qualify- 
ing the team for the Regional meet the following week. 

The team was led by the one-two punch of Senior Rachel 
Hrynewycz (Captain and WKAM Coaches Award) and Freshman 
Joni Sheldon (MVP Award). The most important development of 
the season was the team concept of running in a pack to help with 
the team scoring. Besides the one-two punch of Hrynewycz and 
Sheldon, the team's leading placers were Junior Angelica 
Cervantes (Barb Zook Mental Attitude Award), and Freshman 
Emily Cooper (Freshman Award), and Anita Marks ( Kiwanis 
Scholar Athlete Award). 

Looking to the future, the team returns a young group of 
runners next year. Add to that a potentially strong contibuting 
group of runners from this year's middle school program. The 
Goshen High School Girls Cross Country team looks to improve 
and achieve even more next year.

The phrase, "We Believe" was heard many times 
throughout the football season. The character 
and leadership of the Seniors was outstanding. 
With the support of the underclassmen, they put 
together a remarkable turnaround season and had 
quite a few accomplishments. A list of achieve- 
ments are many, eight straight victories, beat 
#5 team twice, #1 Dekalb, and #4 Fort Wayne 
Wayne for a berth in the semi-state at Hobart. 
Sectional and Regional Champions! 

Offensively, we surpassed 4,200 total yards 
and set a school record in rushing with 3,015 
yds. Sophomore Mason Ogle led the team with 
1,548 yds., while Senior Brett Sloop ran for 933 
yds. For the second straight year Senior Kyle 
Park passed for over 1,000 yds. (1,187) and 12 
TDs. 

Defensively we showed a great deal of improve- 
ment, recorded two shutouts with one being in 
the Sectional Championship against a very potent 
Plymouth offense. We were led by Seniors Tony 
Shepard and Ben Ferguson, Tony Asta, Lalo Rolon, 
Ben Firkins, Juniors Tim Buss, Kevin Miller and 
Jamie Egli. 

The 1996 Captains were Ben Ferguson, Kyle 
Park, and Tony Shepard. Position award winners

The girl's team had a record setting season 
highlighted by the play of senior Inga Snyder and 
the steady contributions by a trio of freshman 
Lisa Robertson, Julie Riley, and Erin Sample. The 
team posted an 18-3 record, which is the fewest 
losses in team history. Snyder broke the school 
record for a 9 hole match with a 34 at McCormick 
Creek in Nappanee. They were conference champs, 
posting a record round of 359. All Conference 
players were Lisa Robertson, Erin Sample, and 
Inga Snyder who was individual medalist with a 
76. The Redskins also went on to win both the 
sectional and regional championships, earning 
them their first ever state title berth. This 
also earned them the number 15 ranking in the 
state. Inga Snyder broke her previous 18 hole 
record of 75 by shooting a 71 in sectionals, 
placing 2nd only to the eventual state champion 
Katy Wilkinson, who shot an even par 70. Snyder 
was also 2nd in regionals to Wilkinson again, and 
posted a 77 on the par 74 Beechwood course in 
LaPorte. Wilkinson shot a 75. 

At the state finals, the skins shot their aver- 
age of 372 but did not advance to the second 
round. However, Snyder shot a 79 which was good 
enough to advance as an individual. She fired 
another 79 for a 154, good enough for 10th place 
overall. She was then selected to the All State 
and Academic All State teams. 

Everyone on the team made steady improvement 
and contributed greatly to the teams' success. 
Erin Sample earned the coaches awards and Lisa 
Robertson the teamwork award. Inga Snyder won the 
mental attitude and M.V.P. awards. Julie Riley 
was most improved.

This was the third year for the Goshen High 
School Varsity and Junior Varsity soccer teams. 
GHS is a member of the Northern Lakes Conference 
along with six other area schools. GHS began 
playing their home games at a new soccer park 
just southeast of town. Rollpak Corp. developed 
some existing farm land into three new soccer 
fields and this is where the Redskins were able 
to put down some roots. The Goshen Soccer Park 
continues to be developed. This year stadium 
lights were added and all varsity home games were 
played under the lights. Also, a fence was placed 
around the fields and an admission was charged to 
the games. The Varsity Soccer team finished the 
season with the record of 5-10-3. 

Four players received recognition for play in 
the Northern Lakes Conference. Daragh Deegan 
received an NLC All-Conference unanimous vote, 
Stefan Rios and Pal Dahl an NLC All-Conference 
selection. Scott Simpson and Randy Valderrama 
received NLC Honorable Mention selection. At the 
Redskins Award Banquet the following awards were 
given: Cu standing JV Player: Ryan Landis; 
Kiwanis 'cholar Awards: Freshman: Tim Shenk; 
Sophmor : Ryan Landis; Junior: David Weaver; 
Senior: .cott Simpson; Beet's Hoke Teamwork Award

This year marked the first year for girl's soccer as an 
official sport at GHS. Thirty-two girls came out for the 
team, making up Varsity and Junior Varsity squads. 
One of the goals from the start of the season was for the 
girls to learn to play together as a team. The players 
worked very hard at this and was led by a strong group 
of Seniors. 

The team started the season with a bang by winning 
the Bethany Jamboree and also winning its opening 
game against South Bend Washington. Other highlights 
during the season included a last-second victory against 
Plymouth and a shutout over Bethany. The team 
capped its first season by winning the East Noble 
Sectional. This was made possible by a come-from- 
behind victory over East Noble in the championship 
game. 

End of the season awards include: Greta Kauffman 
(Most Valuable), Katie Malone (Most Improved), Rosa 
Carmona (Coaches Award), Emily Rupp (Teamwork 
Award), Cara Landis (Mental Attitude Award), Sara 
Simpson (Outstanding Back), Angie Lehman (Hustle 
Award), and Kelsie Gardner (JV Award). Team captains 
for the first year were Seniors Kari Green and Kristyn 
Yoder.

This year's volleyball season was a wham-bammin 
good time!! Coached by Terri Blosser, we initiated the 
attack by conquering the Memorial Invitational. 
Granted, we didn't come in first in the NLC, but we 
held our own with every team. Next on the hit list was 
Goshen's very own invitational. We pulled out victories 
against Lakeland and Jimtown to win another invita- 
tional title. Our season came to a disappointing end 
when we lost to Northridge in sectionals. Our final 
record was a balanced 12-12. 

At the Fall Sport's Banquet the following awards 
were given: 
MVP - Laura Litwiller 
WKAM Coaches Award -- Heather Holmes 
Beets Hoke Teamwork — Krystal Camacho 
Mental Attitude -- Emily Burnett 
Most Improved — Megan Yoder 
Captains — Alison Garcia & Laura Litwiller 

The team will suffer the great losses of seniors, Emily 
Burnett, Alison Garcia, Emily Hamilton, Laura Litwiller, 
and Ashlee McLaughlin.

Four Star School 

Congratulations Goshen High School Students. You are 
attending a Four Star ranked school. This means that the 
distinction is given to schools that place in the top 25% in 
attendance rates, as well as scoring in the top 25% in Lan- 
guage Arts, Mathematics, and Total Battery in the ISTEP 
tests. 

Mrs. Diane Cartwright, GHS English teacher, had this to 
say about the award, "It is something that we should be 
proud of: teachers, students, adminstration, and parents." 
This award is a high accolade, but it is obvious that Goshen 
High School isn't ready to stop at only this level of excel- 
lence. We are also awarded with a monetary Indiana 
School Improvement Award in the Indiana School Incentive 
Award Program. This money will be used to make our 
school the best it can possibly be. 
by: Lee Green 




Santa and His Helpers 




Checking out Goshen High School's Four-Star School Award are, from

school improvement committee; Kristyn Yoder, student council presi- 
dent; and Principal Tom Tumey.

The 1996-1997 team was reloading this season after graduating 
five seniors, and the entire starting front line from the last years' 
15-7 sectional/holiday tourney championship team. With only two 
returning starters, this inexperienced team caughtsome people by 
surprise by getting off to a great 6-3 start in the first half of the 
season while they were hurt in the second half by their lack of size 
and experience inside to finish 8-11 overall. In spite of having 
difficulty in recovering from the loss of their offensive punch, 
defense remained solid throughout the season. 

A young junior varsity finished the season 9-9 and ended up 
winning the J.V. Tourney for the first time in school history. They 
worked very hard to achieve their goals and look very promising 
for the future.

This team set Goshen High School records on 3pt. field goal % at 
43%. Both Brandon Sorrell (48.6%) and Andy Ganger (48%) broke a 
previous record of 47% held by Ryan Gingerich. Andy Ganger's 417 
points in a season broke Brent Miller's 385 of last season. Marc 
jantzi's F.G.% of 62.9 is third best all-time. Brandon Sorrell is one of 
only five players to play more than 700 minutes in a season. 

These seniors and this 1996-1997 basketball team will not be 
forgotten. This team is one of the best in our regional. We have put 
Goshen basketball in respectful position in the area, NLC, and state. 
They won 13, lost 10, and were 3-3 in the NLC and played 7 games 
without a starter due to injury. Great job boy's!

The girls team made a great adjustment this season in that this was 
the first year we were a winter sport with the men's team. We were 
led by five returning letterwinners including co-captains Samantha 
Karn and Rachel Parsons. We concluded the season with a 7-3-1 dual 
meet record placing third in conference. We then placed fifth at 
sectional. We had a strong group this season and were paced by 20 
underclassmen on our roster. The ladies worked hard and dedicated 
themselves to continuing the success of Goshen Swimming-Diving.

This year's Goshen Wrestling team completed a very successful 
season finishing the year with a 16-4 dual meet record and placing 
second in the NLC behind Wawasee. We returned to the top of the 
Northwood Sectional winning the team title and advancing to the 
dual meet State Tournament series, before losing to team Regional 
champ Jimtown. One of our biggest accomplishments was in our 
opening weekend going 10-0 and winning the Valparaiso Invita- 
tional, beating several top 10 ranked teams on the way. This bolted 
us into the state rankings at 13th, where we stayed in the top 20 for 
the rest of the season. 

With only three seniors graduating, our outlook for next year 
hopes to be even brighter. This year's award winners were:

The 1997 Goshen Redskin baseball team concluded its season 
with a 10-20 record. Thirteen of the twenty losses were by two 
runs or less. It was an extremely tough season losing so many close 
games, but the team never hung their heads, had great attitudes, 
worked very hard, and displayed a tremendous amount of class 
throughout the season. 

The work ethic and the improvement of this team was evident 
as the redskins won five of their last six games. During that stretch 
Jon Miller threw a two hitter against East Noble, David Troyer 
threw a no-hitter against Elkhart Central, and the team put to- 
gether a fantastic three game series to win the sectional. The 
highlight of the season was obviously winning the sectional 
championship at Jimtown on Booster Field. The team beat 
Northwood 8-6, Fairfield 6-5, and finally beat Bethany by a 
whomping 18-3 to bring home the trophy. The last sectional title 
had come in 1990. 

The team then took on Mishawaka at Coveleski stadium where 
they were finally defeated by a score of 7-2. Mishawaka were the 
eventual champions of the South Bend Regional. 

The team will lose twelve seniors due to graduation. This group 
was a very tight knit bunch. Most will be going to college, and 
some will even be playing baseball or football. They were excellent 
leaders and will be greatly missed.

The varsity softball team concluded its season with a 11-12 
record. There were many positives from this group as they 
learned to play as a team. With a blend of 4 seniors, 6 juniors, 
and 2 sophomores made up the varsity team this year. The team 
began the season with a goal of improving all aspects of the 
game from the previous year and in the end accomplished that 
goal. The defense became solid and the offense set many season 
records. Three ladies broke the season record for most RBI's, led 
by sophomore Rachel Price who also set the career RBI record. 
Three ladies also broke the season record for total hits, led by 
junior Krystal Camacho with 39. Other individual season record 
set were batting average (Camacho .513), runs scored (Ann 
Braun 33), on-base percentage (Camacho . 717), and Jaime 
Rogers tied the season record for double with 10. Team records 
broken were batting average, total hits, and on-base percentage.

The Boys Golf team opened their season with 5 returning 
lettermen and the potential for a solid season. The group demon- 
strated early that their work ethic and attitude would make them 
competitive. Some early season highlights included Brandon 
Sorrell's 33 on the back nine at Maplecrest and a strong 4th place 
in the very competitive 30 team LaPorte Invitational. During the 
middle of April through the beginning of May the Redskins had a 
13 match win streak. The Skins did however struggle during 
conference play finishing 2nd in the round robin but a very 
disappointing 5th in the NLC tournament. The Skins did regroup 
and finished the dual meet season with a respectable 17-5 record 
but ran out of gas in the sectional, finishing a disappointing 6th 
despite. The Redskins were led this year by Senior Brandon 
Sorrell.

In big meets this team gained confidence and momentum as 
the season progressed. In the Goshen Relays we had winning 
efforts by Ian Robie in the discus (15T11") and the 4x800m relay 
team of Eric Murto, Andrew Mckalips, Jeff Payne and Kris 
Allen (8:13.1) but still placed in a drab fifth place but we 
bounced back nicely to capture runner-up honors in the Kelly 
relays and the NLC meet. NLC champions were Eric Murto in 
the 300m low hurdles, Ryan Elliot in the shot put, and the 
4x800m relay team of Andrew Mckalips, Murto, Payne, and 
Allen. These athletes and Tony Asta were selected to the All- 
Conference team. Without a doubt our best showing of the 
season came at the sectional meet. Led by school record perfor- 
mance by Ryan Friesen in the discus (160'0') and the 4x800m 
relay team (8:02.88) and the 1600m run (10 pts.), the Redskins 
piled up 83 points for 2nd place and one of the best sectional 
performances in sectional history.

The 1997 edition of the Goshen High Scholl Girls Track and Field 
Team had a young and enthusiastic look to it. With a roster of 40 girls 
and only 12 of those Juniors and Seniors, the season was one of 
gaining experience and gaining confidence in competing. The team 
ended up with 4 wins and 6 losses, while many of the meets lost were 
by a small margin. The Junior Varsity finished its season with 9 wins 
and losses. 

There were many outstanding performances throughout the 
season. The 3200 meter relay team of Rachel Hrynewycz, Emily 
Cooper, Alysia Burnett, and Alison Garcia set a new school record. 
Jessica Theis was within 1 /4" of the school record in Long Jump. The 
team had 8 individuals advance to the Regional Meet this year.

Crimsonaires 



The Crimsonaires are out in the community performing all year round. They do 
performances for many community clubs, organizations, and schools. Their year 
begins with the Fall Preview and ends with the Spectacular, and throughtout the 
Christmas season they are busy spreading holiday cheer with nearly 30 perfor- 
mances. 

With the spring season in full swing, their schedule has picked up quickly. In the 
first two weeks of May the Crimsonaires gave two very special performances for the 
volunteer readers and kids they read to at Chamberlain Elementary School. In the 
spring a tradition for the Crimsonaires is to visit each one day and perform a number 
of songs for the students. The children really enjoy this day because, for one, they 
get out of class and, it is a fun time of music and dance. Also in May they took a 
trip to perform at the Indy 500 Time Trials. They spent the weekend in Indy and 
sang just inside the track on Saturday late in the afternoon. 

With the Spectacular coming up the Crimsonaires are busy every Tuesday night 
dancing and singing learning new moves to dazzle the audience at the final show. 

Although its been a busy year it has certainly been fun.

GHS ADVANCED CHOIR STATE CHAMPS 
. . . AGAIN! 



For the last several weeks Ms. Yost has been 
telling her Advanced Crimson Choir that the key to 
performing good music is feeling it in the heart and 
touching the soul of every listener. There is an 
expression in music that can't be taught or forced. 
There is a power in music that must be utilized to 
perform the way the Advanced Crimson Choir did 
on Saturday, May 8, when they won the ISSMA State 
Finals at Perry Meridian High School. The choir 
swept the judges off their feet with a heartwarming 
performance. The only male judge said, "YOU 
BLEW ME OUT OF THE WATER!!!" 

This is the second state championship title for the 
Advanced Choir in the last two years. Two years ago 
the choir went to state and knocked the socks off the 
judges with a performance that was near perfection. 
This year the performance was a breath taking 
display of the real power of music. The choir 
brought the audience members to tears through their 
soulful performance. One of the female judges said, 
"It is so unusual to hear such a musical and emo- 
tional understanding of the music and of the text.... 
You are to be commended for a sensitive and moving 
performance." 

Goshen High School has done it again and they 
are celebrating their victory. Every member worked 
very hard and the title is well deserved.

The choir performed their award 
winning songs at the First Presbyterian 
Church on Sunday, June 1. During 
this celebration,the public was invited 
to help congratulate the choir and see 
the video of the performance. Mrs. 
Linda Wilson had a cake made with 
the actual photo of the Advanced Choir 
recreated on it. Many of the choir 
parents donated cookies and helped 
with the reception.

Erinn Dolezal, Co-Editor: Don't think 
that yearbook is a blow off class because 
that is far from the truth. You have to 
work the entire school year non-stop 
and into the summer. I'm disappointed 
that we didn't get a spring book out, due 
to problems with deadlines. Hopefully 
next year we will be able too. We have 
learned from our mistakes this year and 
will use them to make next year's book 
better. I hope everyone likes the new 
changes. I'll miss you Todd! 

Jill Kreider, Co-Editor: My near-fatal 
disease of procrastination; days of frus- 
tration; hours after school; bad dreams; 
and my computer, Joshua. ..what 
memorieslWatching Erinn and Todd, 
pleading with Adam and Justin for help 
at the last minute, testing Shaun's pa- 
tience, and living in fear of Nicloe's 
sarcasm are the staffers behind my year- 
book memories. Thank you; you are all 
assets to this book! 

Shaun Reynolds, Clubs and Academ- 
ics: As a member of the yearbook staff 
I learned that it pays "big time" to be 
organized. If you are not, things get 
really out of control. And that you can 
not come into this class with the idea 
that it is going to be easy-it's not! This 
class is very challenging. Even though 
Yearbook was hard I'm glad I took it. I 
made alot of new friends. 



Adam S. Yoder, Multi- tal- 
ented Man: My years at 
GHS involved alot of goof- 
ing off. I just want to give 
some advise "Do anything 
you think you want to do, 
because life goes by really 
fast." In short, "live high 
school to it's fullest poten- 
tial." Good Luck!

book. 






Justin Hardesty, Ads Manager: 1 en 

joyed working with everyone on tht 
staff. I would also like to say thanks for 
all the good times the seniors helped 
create. Early in the year I learned tht 
chairs in Ms. Yoder's room are rigged 
to fall apart if you lean back in them. I 
also would like to thank the Elkhart 
Area Career Center for letting me mis^ 
one day so I could finish the ad section 
A big thanks to Ms. Yoder for pushing 
us the extra inch to get this book done 

Nicole Rhinesmith, Photo Editor: 

Yearbook has been a fun class for me. I 
enjoyed taking pictures and making 
up tons of captions for the pictures. I 
also had fun making the teacher's sec- 
tion and trying to get Jill to do her 
section. I would recommend yearbook 
or newspaper to anyone who needs a 
fun and enjoyable class. Plus the four 
seniors are leaving; we really need more 
people.

GHS State Champion Choir performs at graduation. 



Lots of interesting things have happened during this 
school year of 1996-1997. For starters the Beanie Baby craze. 
Every store that had them at one point is now sold out and 
won't have any more in for months. Now let's not forget 
the Teenie Beanie Babies that McDonald's had, People 
would wait for hours at the restaurant waiting for the next 
shipment to come in. In February Star Wars made a big 
comeback with the movie "The Empire Strikes Back." Fans 
would wait in line all day until the tickets went on sale and 
then buy big numbers of them at a time. The movie was 
sold out for weeks and it made a lot of money. At GHS we 
had a blood donor day where lots of people gave blood and 
then lots of people passed out. When we came back from 
Spring Break we were met with the construction crew. 
Parts of our school were being torn down and our parking 
lot was becoming less. Whiteman is no longer in exsistence. 
That was first. By next year our school is going to be less, 
but more is going to be added. Now we come to the big 
storm that hit on May 18. Houses, cars, businesses were 
damaged by this storm. We were out of school for a day 
because almost the entire town of Goshen was without 
electricity. This year was full of very unusual events, but at 
the same time they were very exciting.
